Why Taxi Beats the Night Bus
The N-bus stops everywhere, takes 45 minutes for a 15-minute journey, and leaves you walking the last mile at 3am. A pre-booked RushXO taxi is door-to-door, same fixed price as during the day, driver knows exactly where you are going.
And unlike rideshare apps, there is no surge pricing at 2am on a Friday. The fare you book is the fare you pay.
Is there a night surcharge?
No. Zero surcharge at any hour. Same fixed fare around the clock.
